Red Bull Salzburg strongly advances to the Champions League qualifiers after winning in Vaxjo

EC Red Bull Salzburg traveled to Sweden with great aplomb. Oliver David's side have won their last three Champions League matches, and the Red Bulls have won the league four times in a row. The ICE champion also confirmed his strong form in the match in Väjxö. But the Swedes had more in the first third and took the lead in the 17th minute. As the game progressed, Salzburg were more than level.

Defensively, the visitors were able to rely on the strong David Kickert in goal, and they also succeeded in the last ten minutes. First, Lukas Thaler (51') equalized with a backhand shot, and Ali Wokovec blocked the view of Växio goalkeeper Benedikt Oschgan – the 19-year-old Austrian in goal for the Swedes, who played in the Alpine Hockey League with Linz last season, had to play. Briefly then he was substituted due to injury.

Salzburg took advantage of a late penalty kick against the home team to decide the decision. In the 59th minute, Peter Sneijder scored with a shot straight into the top corner, and just 25 seconds later Ryan Murphy completed a brilliant move over Raffl and Sneijder to make the final score 3-1. This means that the Red Bulls are eligible for the Champions Hockey League playoffs.
